Come grow with us together as we explore 5A with fixed axle yoyos that are double or triple looped to prevent sleeping. Goal is for each of us to post one trick a day in this style from April 13th-19th on Instagram using #bandalore5A and tagging @JosephStromme
Not on Instagram? No problem at all, use any platform and share the link in this thread if you’d like
Most of all, have fun trying something new.

And if you are looking for inspiration, @Nic_from_Adelaide aka Cowclops has some awesome videos
Same with overtinkering
Mind if I boost this with the YYBC accounts? Looks like it’s something the club would be totally down for
I am positive that Joseph would absolutely love that, please do and thank you so much!
Feel free to share your proverbial weapon of choice.
This is the Glow Manamana, made by Stoneroxalot. It has No Jive guts. I have it triple looped in true Bandalore fashion with my last strand of Oh Canada string (praise be to @AudreySickburn for the soon to come reboot “I can’t believe it’s not Canada” string, I hope to be your first customer.)
Oh, and speaking of Return Bottoms, the counterweight is from my glow WaffleStomper.
I’m excited to bring it back! My dog isn’t taking his surgery recovery well lol. He is surviving he’s just being a real jerk so I haven’t listed them yet because he’s keeping everybody busy 
Going to have to give this a spin, haven’t yoyo’s with a “hitch” in a while. Need to decide what my weapon of choice will be. May have to go with my Buffalo if I want pull start capabilities.
It honestly didn’t cross my mind to 5A pull start, that’s a fantastic idea
I am not used to how quick the yoyo is to respond with the double wrap
Dude, you’re already killing it, great job.
Agreed on the double loop. It feels so awkward and really took me out of my comfort zone but I am embracing it more and finding that it opens up tricks that were way harder without the double wrap
Specifically aerials, the ultra responsiveness helps me get some height on them, and also allows for me to be able to get the yoyo back to my hand even if it has super minimal strength left on the axle.
Yea closest I got to a non sleeping “up and down yoyo” as I called them back then was my cheap grocery store yoyo whose string was press fit into the axle hole. Before I when understood the concept of a yoyo being able to sleep.
